    Tunbridge Wells Museum & Art Gallery Collections Management Plan First edition August 2006 Second edition October 2012 Reviewed and revised June 2016 Collections Management Plan Executive summary Introduction The Collections Management Plan provides a framework for all collections-related aspects of the museum service. The plan aims to consolidate best practice in all aspects of collections management, and to ensure compliance with the national museum Accreditation scheme. Collections Development The Collections Development Policy aims to maintain and document appropriate formal procedures for the entry of objects to and the exit of objects from the collections. It incorporates a review of the existing collections to establish a context within which to chart their future development. It identifies gaps and potential growth areas, and provides criteria for the acceptance or otherwise of objects that may be offered to the Museum as donations, or which may appear as available for purchase. It establishes priorities for future collecting, including that of contemporary material. Documentation The documentation policy statement sets out in-house procedures established by the Museum for processing new acquisitions, cataloguing collections, recording location and movement, information retrieval, and exit and loan records. Collections care and conservation The statement on collections care and conservation aims to establish a balanced and flexible policy which combines high standards of collections care with the provision of a wide range of opportunities for people to engage with the collections. It is based on the standards set out in the checklist Benchmarks in Collection Care. Its coverage includes monitoring and control of environmental conditions, storage, handling, and remedial conservation.

We hope to be able to see them out around the village before too many more weeks pass.) COVID 19 HELPLINE The Covid 19 helpline is working! Thank you to the volunteers that came forward. We now have 30 registered of which most have contributed in some way. Easter bunnies were out all over out village on Easter Sunday,,, Thank you. You made a difference. Once again for those needing to shield at home, there is help. It's only a phone call away. Thank you to everyone who silently helps their neighbour. Margaret Thompson 07906 509302 NHS The old familiar sounds of the day I miss, really eerie, didn't know it mattered at all. Then to stand on the door step and applaud our NHS workers in a small village like ours was really heartening. It was so great I phoned my daughter, Sally, who nurses in Chelsea and Westminster in London. She sounded very emotional, therefore so was I. What a lovely thing to do. “Mum I can hear a foghorn and whistles, clapping, saucepans and hoorahs!” Yes, Sally, even our small community, individually we care as much as those that live in the smoke. Even more so as we are out on a limb. So cheers to all for doing their bit and more, right across the board. A huge well done and thank you so much..

  • Report and Recommendations
    1 Tunbridge Wells Town Plan Advisory Panel Report and Recommendations Presented to TUNBRIDGE WELLS BOROUGH COUNCIL July 2012 2 FOREWORD It is now around eight months since I set up the Tunbridge Wells Town Plan Panel with the purpose of better informing the debate on the future development of the town. Some finger crossing was needed at first since the exercise was new to all those involved, and required some pretty basic blue sky thinking. However, I am delighted that we are now able to publish our views, based on the consensus of the majority of the Panel members. Looking back, I feel privileged to have been part of a group of people who have shown such dedication and have given up so much of their time to the task. There will be those, no doubt, who will question the composition of the Panel and indeed its competence or mandate for doing this work. The choice of members was initially mine, and whilst I made every effort to ensure a balanced selection of skills and demographics, I was always aware that this could never be entirely perfect, and would be inevitably open to challenge. Despite this, however, I remain confident that the result is a valid and useful contribution to the consultation process. In particular, the thinking has been from the bottom up, starting with a clean sheet and few pre-conceived ideas. It is probable that the result may not be seen as dramatic, but I am convinced that it will prove to be of considerable significance in further informing the Borough Council's consultation on the Tunbridge Wells town centre plan.
